if anyone took any piece of my previous post (achem. hobbes the stuffed tiger) seriously in any way, then you need to laugh a little more.  the use of the term foxhunt was merely for cuteness. a bunch of inbred white horse-riding aristocrats following dogs chasing a cute little fuzzy raccoon/cat/dog/thing, to feel like they are sporting are in my mind     hilllarious. 

majere was just venting, until he kills your chickens, let him run free!

what did faulkner say about shouting into the wind signifying nothing or something?            is it really that important to assert one's superiority over the nuances of the wind?

When Obama leaves office...  (A couple of UCLA Ph.D's ran the #'s and discovered that FDR prolonged the "Great Depression" by 7 years by his econimic policies.)  Obama is making the same mistakes and setting up for the "Ultimate Depression" (think "Dark Ages") when all this comes due.

If he is rated so much higher then you and the games a draw.  You should feel good that means that your game is equal to his .

Majere1313 the draw rules are there to make sure there is an end to the game, even if it is unsatisfying.  I personally LIKE finding a way to force or earn a draw, there is creative skill and effort involved in finding the draw in a "lost" position.  It's also a fun way to punish an opponent who misses the win (for whatever the reasons).
